THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER.
----------------------------------------
It seems like there aren't much people who read this manga, which it's really sad because it has such an amazing story and characters. I decided to make the thread for the last chapter (Stage 4, vol 6) from the 14th volume, but i'll be reviewing some stuff from the other chapters from this volume as well. I know the 15th volume is already out, but i'll put my thoughts and theories anyways since i haven't read yet.


  • I love that scene. And when i first saw Rokuto inside the mirror i thought he just wanted friends, so he caught Daisuke and made the world seems the real world, however it turned out that he's Daisuke's true self, or at least what Daisuke wanted to be. If Dark exists in that world too, it means that Daisuke no matter what, doesn't wish for him to disappear anymore, they're conected more than never now. Which makes me wonder how the manga will end, it'll be pretty sad. I can see myself crying for the first time with an manga.
    And i like the contrast with the Mirror's name, it's called Insomnia, however everyone inside the mirror gets sleepy.

  • What the old-man from the museum said about the mirror was quite interesting "This door isn't something that separates between this side and that side; it was made with a consciousness of both this side and that side". In the translation i read it was kinda ambiguos wether he was saying that both sides are different or if both sides are equals; i'll keep the first interpretation. If you look yourself in a mirror, you'll not see the opposite of what you are or what you wanted to be, you'll see your true self, the way it is. It can also be a metaphor saying that there are other dimensions and may exist other selves of you playing different roles. Now the more important thing, the fact that Rokuto is what Daisuke always wanted to be when he was inside the mirror makes me think that Riku has officially feelings for Dark, no matter how small they are. That only if part of her was swallowed by the mirror, which i think it was. Why is that? Because Risa, Riku and Hiwatari were together when the mirror was pulling Daisuke in. Risa was swallowed as well, while Riku apparently wasn't and Hiwatari either. However in the mirror's world Riku does exist, while Hiwatari doesn't. So i believe part of her was taken from the real world. In the mirror's world Riku admits she has feeling for Rokuto, which is probably the Dark from that world. Even if part of Riku weren't swallowed, it's still weird because the mirror likes her, so why wouldn't he want her next to him, inside the mirror?
    It can also be that when "Riku" first awoke in the mirror's world, it was really her, however there's this panel where she wears a blank expression and then wakes up in the real world. After that is when she really starts acting weird inside the mirror. So part of her could have been taken at that time.
  • Random Riku panel that i loved:

    I think Sugisaki draws faces really well, just look at this. It's too pretty. <3 When i really learn how to color manga nicely, i'll make sure to color this picture of her.

This chapter was really good!^^
It kinda reminds me of kingdom hearts sora/roxas with Daiske/rokuto XD
Do you know how many more chapters are out? I've only found up to 61

Well, if my counting is correct and the 60th one happens to be Stage 4, vol. 6 (I counted this more the four times), there are out 66 chapters (There are 6 in the 15th volume). Not sure online 'cause I buy the volumes to read. ^o^

Ah Lucky! The volumes stopped at 13 in the American ones...I think it's because Tokyopop's American branch went under :/
I have almost all 13 of them, but once TP went under I started reading online because I can't read them anywhere else T_T

Awn, too bad. ;A; Here in Brazil we have all the 15 volumes out so far, but I guess the manga is on hiatus again.

Risa is having an insomnia/memory problem huh? No doubt magic has some influence part in it so I hope they can resolve this....
